Answer: 189.41

Step-by-step explanation: Let’s take the number as n and if nx(100-15)/100=161 then 85n/100=161 and therefore n= 181.4117

I don’t know why the answer is in decimal as mostly it won’t be. Maybe you have made a mistake with the question so pls do check the question too!

Use radical notation to rewrite each expression and simplify<br> 9 3/2

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

$9^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt{9^3}=27$

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractional exponent m/n is often translated to radical form as ...

$x^{\frac{m}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{x^m}$

In this case, I find it easier to evaluate as ...

$x^{\frac{m}{n}}=(\sqrt[n]{x})^m=\boxed{(\sqrt{9})^3=3^3=27}$

All the select drop box is. are not and are

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles of both the squares are congruent. (angles of a square measure 90°)

Ratio of the sides of the given squares = $\frac{\text{Side length of small square}}{\text{Side length of the large square}}$

= $\frac{2}{5}$

This ratio of side lengths is constant for all corresponding sides.

Therefore, corresponding sides are proportional.

Since, all angles of both the squares are congruent and all the sides are proportional, both the squares will be similar.

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Side length of large square}}{\text{Side length of the smaller square}}$

= $\frac{5}{2}$

= 2.5

This sequence of similarity transformations shows the figures are similar.

Which of the following angle pairs best describes angles 6 and 4 in the graphic below?

andriy [413]

Answer: Choice C) Same-side interior angles

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Angle 4 and angle 6 are on the same side, in this case the right hand side of the transversal line (line t). In addition, they are on the interior of the "train tracks" horizontal lines (line a and line b). Combine this and this is why the two angles are same-side interior angles

Side note: if line a is parallel to line b, then angle 4 and angle 6 add to 180 degrees. At this point, they are considered supplementary.
